  1. 💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: 🦁👑 A new four-part #NationalGeographic series follows cub Kio and his pride in #Kenya for four years as he grows toward adulthood.

    Filmmakers logged over 1,400 hours using specialized #camera rigs without manipulating footage. The #story hinges on his mother Summer and his brotherhood, showing real lion cooperation that contrasts with solitary paths to power.

  4. Back with a crowd favorite, the Oval Ambersnail (Novisuccinea ovalis)! Although, I seem to have caught them mid-coitous this time 🙈 just a little peek for #snailsunday (if that's not a thing, I'm making it one now).
